I've had carrot soup which was made sweet and savory with brown sugar and onions, but I haven't tried the Carrot & Tangerine version. Sounds pretty tasty to me!<br><br>Bonus Kitchen Tip for the day:<br><br>Everyone likes good tools, whether they're a home builder or a chef. <a href="http://us.microplane.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWCATS&Category=2" style="color: teal; text-decoration: underline;">Microplane</a> offers a brilliant line of graters for the kitchen. They're well made and as sharp as anything you've ever used. From filing off fresh nutmeg, to thin slicing potatoes to shaving off rock-hard cheese, these are the best you can get, as far as I know.<br><br>Oh, and they make woodworking tools, too!<br><br>

You're being polite, John. <br><br>Sorry, Phos, but you could probably chase me outta the county with carrot soup. And I do like carrots, but . . . nope. <br><br><br><br><br><br>[color:blue]I always deserve it. Really.</font color=blue><br><br>

Can't remember if I posted this.<br><br>Couch Potato Soup<br>I made this up myself and it was also in the paper I work for in a series on employee recipes. It couldn't be easier as the frozen hash browns save the peeling and boiling potato parts. Thus the Couch Potato moniker. You can use fresh onions in place of the dried. You can also add corn or clams to vary the recipe. <br>Couch Potato Soup<br>1 or 2 Cans Aunt Penny's <br>White Sauce (Depending on how much soup you want)<br>Milk <br>(at least a quart)<br>Diced Ham <br>(Bacon can be added also)<br>1 or 2 stalks Celery<br>Frozen Southern Style <br>Hash Browns<br><br>Celery Salt<br>Onion Flakes<br>White Table Salt<br>Black Pepper <br>(Fresh Ground if <br>stronger flavor desired)<br>Butter<br>Parsley<br><br>Whisk white sauce together with milk until smooth. Use enough milk for a fairly thin sauce. Heat in a large saucepan on stove. Add the following ingredients to taste.<br>Onion flakes, celery salt, salt, pepper, diced ham (and/or bacon), chopped celery, butter and parsley. Heat to slow boil. Make sure you stir often enough to keep from scorching on the bottom. When boiling add enough frozen hash browns to leave as much broth as desired. Remember this will thicken as potatoes soften. Cook until potatoes taste done & celery is tender, at least 20 minutes. Can add additional milk if too thick or for reheating after refrigeration.<br><br><br>oh yeah, that's going in the blog

Meh, no worries, Lea and John. Different munches for different bunches.<br><br>There are very few things I won't eat, and my taste buds can easily imagine what the combination of flavors in Carrot & Tangerine Soup would taste like. Think: Mind's Eye. But substitute tongue.<br><br><br><br>
